Prince Charming’s Bet

We love loser men who are so down bad for their girl. With K-drama fans suffering from Lovely Runner withdrawals, Cha-min is a pretty strong contender for our new Sun-jae. Of course, the fiancee angle is going to be a chaebol arranged marriage situation but we are so down for a couple of more overdramatic reactions!The satire really is top-notch and we didn’t expect this from a freaky little web series literally called Dreaming of Cinde Fxxxing Rella at one point. But it does it well, from making fun of the usual melodrama tropes to cleverly using actual rom-com storylines while still being aware of the irony. The last half of Dreaming of a Freaking Fairytale Episode 2 with the overdramatic acting, the music and the sepia tone was all hilarious. But we will be honest, this childish humour, the intentional hammy retelling and the silly plot twists aren’t for everybody. If goofy rom-coms are your cup of tea, you will be laughing non-stop. Otherwise, you are better off watching a more subtle and serious romance like The Midnight Romance in Hagwon.
